Heal the Mind, Heal the Body 

There is plenty of debate concerning willpower and the effect it has on disease. When sickness comes, it is hard to push away all the negative thoughts – in fact, the idea is completely unrealistic. Still, those who continue to remain as positive as they can through such an event (or any for that matter) seem to know how to cast those feelings to the side and enjoy all the good in their lives. These blissful thinkers tend to be in the healthiest of conditions as well. It may sound too good to be true or downright annoying to hear that such advice when doing through a serious ailment for some. Still, there is evidence that optimism, hope, and most of all, believing you can take control of your life again, helps improve health as well as speed up recovery.

Maintain a Positive Outlook

Everything about our body is not all figured out to this day. There are some situations, even if they are good, that cannot be answered. The same goes for why those who look at the brighter side of a dark event tend to recover faster, live longer, or even be healed from diseases such as AIDS, cardiovascular disease, and cancer. There is an  increasing amount if evidence that suggests the there is a strong relationship with the mind and the immune system. Looking at it from the opposite spectrum, pessimism makes people stress out, elevating stress hormones in the blood which can wear out the organs and body over time.  The level of stress one has plays a major role in allowing the body to cope with disease.

Melt the Stress

Although we are inherently positive people, situations such as a disease can put many through a state of hopelessness and depression. While it may seem hard to break, an attitude change is one of the first things you need to do, even if it is temporary.

Continue to Smile: Doing something as simple as smiling helps lower blood pressure, heart rate, and stress hormones. Do not feel guilty about humoring yourself more often whether if it is by going out or watching an amusing video.

Stay Surrounded with Loved Ones: One of the worst things a person can do is isolate themselves from everyone. The people you cared about before will still love you regardless, wanting to help in any way they can. Help can be hard to accept for some because of not wanting to be weak, but this couldn’t be any more further from the truth. Adapting to a new situation can take time so people should allow themselves the reorientation they need. 

Clearing the Mind: Keeping yourself distracted and not thinking about the complications of  a disease is beneficial for you. The combination of a clear mind and stress reduction are possible with meditation, tai-chi, prayer, and yoga. Ones perspective naturally shifts for the better when starting any or all of these alleviating activities.

When Our Chakra is Disrupted

We all have a busy and hectic lifestyle than can make us forget to do one of the important things: to take care of ourselves. While most people may think about improving things such as what they eat or becoming more active, many forget about keeping clearing the mind and body from within. There are seven main centers of our body composed of energy known as chakras that correlate to our physical and emotional ability or disability. When we do go through issues, it can weaken our emotional reaction to doing, thinking, or handling things. The existence of fears and unstable emotions result in physical restrictions such as soreness and aches that block or affect one or more of our chakra points.

Root Chakra

The first chakra is found at the tailbone of the spine. Emotional imbalances here include feelings that affect our most basic needs like food. Physical imbalances result in complications involving the feet, legs, spine, immune system, rectum, and male reproductive hormones. It can later lead to issues like constipation, knee pain, and degenerative arthritis.

Sacral Chakra

The second chakra is beneath the belly button and disruption can cause urinary, kidney, and reproductive problems as well as pain at pelvis, hip, or back. Trouble with commitment, the ability to express, have fun or be creative can also be seen. Instead, fears of betrayal, impotence, and addictions may happen.

Plexus Chakra

The third is located above the belly button and one may develop GI related problems involving the digestive system, gallbladder, and pancreas. When it is out of whack one may notice self-esteem and power struggles along with fearing rejection and critic.

Heart Chakra

The fourth chakra is connected to lung and heart disease, asthma, and problems related to the lymphatic system, breast, wrist, arm, back, and shoulder. One may experience an increase in anger, jealousy, loneliness, bitterness, abandonment, and over-loving to the point it suffocated them.

Throat Chakra

The fifth chakra can induce a sore throat, thyroid and facial issues, ear infections, laryngitis ulcers, and neck or shoulder discomfort. A person may feel as if they are out of control or have o willpower to do anything. There is a fear of no choice or power due to inhibited self-expression, whether verbal or written. 

Third Eye Chakra

The sixth chakra is at the center of the eyebrows and can cause sinus problems, blurry vision, headaches, seizures, hearing loss, eyestrain, and hormonal imbalance. Emotional imbalances may be include extreme daydreaming and imagination, moodiness, and self-reflection issues.

Crown Chakra

The seventh and final chakra is at the top of our head and can invoke depression, hinder the ability to learn, and cause extreme sensitivity to the environment, light, and sound. People may have a lack of self-knowledge and possess a rigid view on spirituality and religion. They may be confused often and, fear being alone, and are in a constant state of confusion.

Since the well-being of our family is our number one priority, it’s natural that we’ll do anything to ensure it. Our home is the place where we can arrange everything to suit us. The same way as we tend to improve the quality of our family’s lifestyle with nutritious diet and healthy fun-filled activities, we also want to create a pleasant atmosphere by upgrading the décor of our homes. One thing that can significantly boost the energy and aesthetics of your interior is definitely amber.

What is amber?

Although it’s commonly known as amber stone, it is actually a tree resin which is fossilized and has undergone various temperature and pressure changes, over several thousands of years. It isn’t just a precious stone, but it has been popular throughout the ages not only for its exquisite beauty, but also for its therapeutic and protective properties.

The same way the tree resin serves to protect the tree and mend it in case of an injury, amber has the exact same beneficial properties for people. It’s scientifically proved that it contains a small percentage of succinic acid, which can improve the human immune system significantly.

Here are several ways in which we can benefit from amber in our homes:

Teething children

As we all know, when baby’s first teeth are growing, it is a painful process both for them and the parents. Necklaces made of Baltic amber (which is considered to be of the finest quality) have been found to successfully alleviate the children’s pain and improve the overall mood during teething period. Wearing amber has a soothing effect on the youngest, and helps in mending the potential injury. Keep in mind that it must be removed during the night for the danger of children swallowing them. 

When it comes to amber, the trick is to always keep it in contact with skin. Since most of the aforementioned acid is contained in the external layers of the stone, the body’s warmth stimulates its release, so the body then absorbs this natural antibiotic, which creates the protection.

Female problems

During that time of the month most of us ladies feel out of place, and many women experience extreme menstrual pains, usually followed by pain in the muscles and bones, as well as headaches or migraines. Amber oil can be of great help for this monthly trouble, and it can be easily found on the market, usually combined with some pleasant smelling essential oils. Lapis lazuli is also one of the most favorite choices, being great for headaches.

Nature in the home

Most of the people nowadays turn to green and eco-friendly lifestyle, so amber can be used as a useful decoration. You can have the nature-based home arrangement easily by including some amber, wood furniture, or wool floor rugs that match and complete the overall appearance of your interior. Amber figurines are both beautiful and useful addition to any home

Natural immunity

As said before, wearing amber can help us develop a better immune system in a completely natural way, without the use of various pills containing lab-made vitamins. Thanks to the wide variety of jewelry items, designs, and combinations that can be easily found and bought today, the stone can be worn by everybody: kids and adults, men and women. It’s also believed to be beneficial for the nervous system in terms of calming the nerves and lifting the mood.
